Lentil dip with feta and bell pepper

The lentil dip recipe is very similar to the Middle Eastern dip. haydari. It consists of feta and/or Greek yogurt, baked peppers and spices, which are blended into a flavorful and slightly spicy dip. However, this recipe adds cooked lentils to the list of ingredients and omits the chili, making the dip milder and more family-friendly. In addition, baked peppers are also used in jars, which makes the recipe much faster. If you also choose to use cooked lentils from a can, the ingredients really just need to be blended together and seasoned before serving. 

TIP: The baked peppers in jars can be found at Lidl or in Middle Eastern grocers.
